It does not take much imagination
to visualize the constant changes that

sleeves and collars are permitted in
one frock. True, they need constant
washing, but many of them do not
need starch, and all of them can be
easily ironed at home.
It is prophesied, advises a fashion
writer, that this form of dressing will
grow more In evidence as the winter
Weather comes on, for the medievals
saw in this method of clothing them
selves a way to keep warm and to en
liven their appearance. So be warned
in time, and do not throw away a gown
because its armhoies and sleeves-are
worn out. It can be made into a
medieval tunic or short apron, which
can be worn over separate sleeves and
collar attached to a skeleton blouse,
"Cellulon," New Wood Pulp Fiber.
There has, says the Board of Trade
Journal, been much discussion IS the
German press during recent weeks con
cerning a wood pulp fiber named "Cel
lulon," for which large claims are
made as an efficient substitute for jute,
cotton and other fibers. It appears to
be certain that the fiber Is not made
by spinning long strips of paper run
off reels through water in the manner
which German paper textile substi
tutes have made familiar. The ac
counts agree in describing the proc
ess, or processes, as a direct manu
facture from wood pulp. The con
sul general at Zurich, who has pre
sented a report to the foreign office,
states that the method employed op
erates on the same general lines as
that used for artificial silk manufac
ture-that is, by squeezing pulp un

There has been designed a simple
and popular midseasen gowo- made
with a loose peplum shirtwaist that
has short sleeves and a rounded low
neck. It is not only worn by young
girls, but older women find it avail
able for many of their daytime activi
ties. It is made in black and other
plain somber colors, and also in
figured foulard and printed chiffon. It
allows an extra pair of sleeves, and
this trick is another revival of an an

"De Luxe Annie "-presented by Jo

is vastly different from the average
crook play, and, by the same token,
Infinitely superior. It is the story of
a finely bred woman-whose husband
is interested in criminal psychology
and who is herself transformed into
a criminal by an accident. The crime
she' practices is the "de-luxe game,"

Emily Stevens, the famous emotion
al actress, will be the attraction Sun*
day at the Rex theatre in "Kildare of
Storm," a powerful drama of life in
the south. The play was adapted for
the silyersheet from the novel of that
name written by Eleanor Mercein
Kelly, and published by the Century
company, and which created such a
furore in literary circles.
The story is that of a young girl
who is compelled to marry a man, on
account of his social standing and
wealth, whom she does not love. 'He
is of the brutal, domineering kind
who believes that women are merely
toys of men and he treats her ac

Herbert. Brenon's first production

Nazimova as the star, and it will be

Scenario is from Marion Craig Went
wbrth's play, in which Nazimova
scored her greatest success. The story
'deals with the war brides incidents
which took place in certain European
countries at the outset of the present

ELKO PROGRAM
The incomparable Mary Pickford,
queen of screen players, will he seen
at the Elko theatre tonight and Sun
day matinee and evening, in her lat
est Artcraft photoplay, "M'liss," a
picturization of Bret Harte's famous
story of "the days of old, the days of
gold, the days of '49." It is filled
with all those elements that appeal
to the best instincts of human nature
andtas a whole, this splendid picture
will afford all who see it unbounded
pleasure and recreation of the most
salutary description.
GRAND PROGRAM.
In "Friend Husband," newest of
the Goldwyn pictures, in which
Madge Kennedy is presented at tU.
'Grand theatre tonight and Sunday,
matinee and evening the individual
little star assumes the role of a "new"
rgirl who professes to scorn the domes
tic shackles and who endeavors to
prove her ideas of personal freedom
are entirely practicable. "Friend
Husband" is a different sort of photo
romance in several ways. The star
herself is different, the plot is decid
edly out of the ordinary and the pro
duction is uniquely beautiful.
"Smiling Bill" Parsons will also
appear in his latest comedy "Billie's
Sweetie."

England Grows Sunflowers.
The big war revival in agriculture is
producing many interesting experi
ments In the growing of new crops on
land not in use for growing human
food. For example, big area in Eng
land is now, on the suggestion of the
food production department, planted
with sunflowers, the seeds of which
are valuable both as a source of oil
and for poultry food.
Small cultivators are also urged by
the government to sow sugar beets aa
an improved food for stock, especially
for pigs. Farmers whose cereal crops
have failed owing to attacks from dif
ferent parasites are advised to grow
Instead linseed. The latest reports
from the country show unprecedented
activity in potato planting in spite of
the bad weather last spring.
